Credit card? Why?

Why for the love of god do I need to enter my credit card info just to post a review on iTMS? In order to post a review I have to login. In order to login, I have to enter my credit card info. Why? This makes no sense at all. I have no interest in buying songs on iTMS.
It's really annoying how apple has gotten to expect that users will just go along with whatever they say. It's windows XP that constantly bugs you to do XYZ even if you don't want to. I thought apple was better then that. I guess not.

I have no interest in buying songs on iTMS.
If you are not interested in buying songs on the ITMS then why would you be interested in posting reviews? Also, Apple is a business. Why should they accomodate people who are not customers?
Macmenno is most likely correct. Without the credit card requirement, anybody could sign on anonymously and post whatever they want. This would likely lead to a large number of immature and profane reviews.

  • I had money on my itunes account but it charged my credit card, why

    Purchased a movie from apple tv the other night and the next day saw a charge on my credit card, however, there was gift card money in my itunes account.  Was wondering why it didn't deduct it from that like it usually does.

    if these are itunes purchased you can open up the itunes app on the ipod then tap the tab that says purchased then download all the songs you want to be on the ipod.

    Just downloaded a free apps, but AppStore charged to my credit card, wanna find out what is it for?

    Usually it swips $1 for your credit card.
    In case you have accidentally purchased anything, you will have a receipt within a couple of days to your mail id. You can reverify the purchase, if any.

  • Why Do I Need a Credit Card to Show Artwork from CD's That I Own Legally?

    In Windows Media Player the album artwork shows up right away, but with itunes they tell me I need and account, and that account needs a credit card, why? I do not plan to buy anything from apple as I merely want to use what I own legally, I want the artwork from my CD'S to show up on itunes and on my ipod and do not think that my credit card needs to be part of that simple request. Please advise?

    Artwork is only available for albums that are for sale in the iTunes Store. If Exile on Main Street is not something that iTunes sell, you'll have to find your artwork elsewhere. As Roger said, Amazon is usually a good place to start looking. Also, a Google Image search may find what you're looking for.
    I believe that the Command - I equivalent on a Windows machine is Control-I. However, if you right click on the song, Get Info should also be one of the options. It's also an option from the File Menu, I believe. Poke around, use the Help function (which has a list of keyboard shortcuts, by the way), you'll find it.
    Only Apple would know why they need or what certain information. Generally, it's pretty easy to dummy a phone number if the field is required and you don't wish to give out that information. I find all 7s works fairly well.

  • Cancelled but you keep charging my credit card

    I cancelled in premium in March through your website  but have just realised you have carried on charging my credit card, Why don't you have proper support/contact details instead of using these public forums? I expect someone from Spotify to contact me regarding a refund. Again absolutely absurd that an organisation your size does not have support contact details

    I agree. I cancelled my premium account months ago and am still getting charged.  The lack of any support contacts for "paying" customers is inexcusable. I will be asking my credit card company to refund their charges.

  • Non-UK Credit Card - Top Up

    I travel back and forth to the UK on business.  I would like to top up my EE prepaid mobile broadband, but I do not have a UK credit card. Seems strange, I could buy it with a non-uk credit card, but cannot top up without one What are the option - I would like to top up before I arrive so it is ready to go when I hit the ground, so going into an EE Store is not the best option since typically arrive on a Sunday and nearest stores are closed.  

    Why don't you accept PayPal? That would solve the non UK credit card problem. I am in the same situation myself. I am visiting on sabbatical and need to be able to call home.  It is so extremely inconvenient to have to find a top up place.  The top-up places accept my credit card, why can't I register my credit card with you?  To simply say it isn't possible, or we don't do that, isn't really an answer or a solution. Thanks,visiting.

  • Why is it so difficult to CANCEL a subscription to AOLs cyber newspaper, "THE DAILY".  It appears to have been made very possible as a scam, so once you give them the automatic, weekly deduction to your credit card or bank account, it's non cancelable!

    BEWARE:  if you subscribe to AOL'S cyber newspaper (for 99¢ per week),you will have to give them authorization to charge your account weekly vain iTunes/apple account or credit card or bank account.  Once you do that you have a better chance having a long phone chat with Oboma about all the people now on welfare, than getting someone to at AOL or APPLE to cancel your subscription.  You will get routed all around and put on hold and finally referred to a forum where this has been REPEATEDLY asking ...and, per APPLE, answered.  In fact, when you follow the APPLE given link (a live person at APPLE sends you the link by email but can not tell you what to do on the phone) ... And you go to the link, you will find ...as I did and others commented they did too...that the link suggestions do not work to allow younto cancel The Daily!   At this point younwill have over an hour, perhaps 2 (as in my case) invested and STILL NOT HAVE IT CANCELLED.
    What incompetence by AOL and APPLE!   Or wait; do you really think this is made so complex, not by incompetence, but by design?
    You mean you think AOL ...once the got your account debit authorization working, the want to make it nearly impossible for you to stop them from continuing to "milk the cow"?   They do have a dubious, to put it politely, record onmcustomer care (reason theynlost literally millions of paying "AOL Members" starting about mid 1990's ...and then making AOL free before ALL their "members left".)
    Ok, so it is not hard to see AOL doing something like this.  I admit.  However, with ITunes participating in the billing for "the Daily. Onto your Aplle Account credit card or bank account, do you think the generally ethically run APPLE would participate in the AOL scam too?  Why can't or doesn't,t APPLEgive you a straight answer or take care of stopping the itunesnbilling for "The Daily"?  Thismismbad enoughmthat a forum has started on the question and APPLE refers youmto that NOT VERY HELPFUL, short, old forum discussion.
    Is there a conspiracy here ... A scam?   Or, is there some logical and reasonable explanation?   Absent a such a good explanation, this is class action lawsuit material ...to recover all the amounts deducted from customers who wanted to cancel but did not have the time and endurance to figure out how to cancel.

    Yoor post is very confusing. AOL's iPad magazine is called "Editions" and it's free. "The Daily" is put out by TheDailyHolding and is owned by Rupert Murdoch. You've already posted in another thread where the solution was given. Other people seem to have manged to get unsubscribed.
    Best of luck.
